I Told Him My Dog Wouldn't Run Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I told him that my dog wouldn't run
[G]I t[D]old him that I love s[G]omeone
[D]Yeah, that's my old[G] car
out in the parking [D]lot[G]
I [D]saw him when he first [G]walked in
I [D]thought it was a vision of [G]him
He was [D]looking like where
he had been
[G]Looking kind of [D]fra[G]gile
He said [Bm]I read the Bible[G] every day
[A]Trying to keep the demons at bay
[Bm]Thank God when the sun goes down
[G]I don[A]'t blow it
My [D]friend said, was he always [G]like that?
I said, [D]yeah, but he was never this [G]bad
And I remem[D]ber us playing
for nick[G]els and dimes
I [D]asked [G]him[D] to marry me once,[G]
he [D]told me he couldn't because [G]this
[D]would be all there [G]was.[D][G]
He [Bm]said, I read the Bib[G]le every day,
[A]trying to keep the demons at bay.
[Bm]Thank God when the sun goes down
[G]I don[A]'t blow away
He [D]was laughing but
I didn't get [G]the joke
He was [D]dying to light up [G]the smoke
And I [D]wanted to cry in fluores
[G]cent light of the [D]restaurant[G]
I [D]smiled and I got up to go
[G]I was h[D]opin' for a goodbye to h[G]old
But it was [D]kinda like touchin' a ghost
[G]So I ran when I [D]walked out
[G]He said, I r[Bm]ead the Bib
[G]le every day
[A]Tryin' to keep the demons at bay
[Bm]Thank God when the sun goes down
[G]I don[A]'t blow away
I [D]got in my car and I drove
[G]Over [D]the bridge to the[G] coast
Wondering [D]where has old love gone
